AFAR in the News: AFAR Earns Perfect Score on Charity Navigator

AFAR is proud to announce that, thanks in part to our ongoing accountability and fiscal transparency, we have earned a perfect score of 100% on Charity Navigator. This rating, earned by less than .01% of charities, designates AFAR as an official “Give with Confidence” charity, indicating that we use our donations with the utmost efficacy and responsibility based on Charity Navigator’s criteria.

Charity Navigator is America’s largest and most-utilized independent charity evaluator. Since 2001, the organization has been an unbiased and trusted source of information for more than 11 million donors annually.

“We are delighted to provide AFAR with third-party accreditation that validates their operational excellence,” said Michael Thatcher, President and CEO of Charity Navigator. “The Four-Star Rating is the highest possible rating an organization can achieve. We are eager to see the good work that AFAR is able to accomplish in the years ahead.”
